The XForce resonator delete pipe is a centre section kit for the Audi S3 8V and VW Golf R MK7-8. It removes the factory resonator and puts a plain length of stainless steel pipe in its place, mandrel-bent and built to OEM sizing so it sits in the standard exhaust. Clamps are included.
A resonator is a tuned chamber that cancels particular frequencies before they reach the tailpipe, so taking it out lifts the volume a step rather than transforming the car - what was being damped, including the DSG shift character and the engine note across the rev range, simply comes through. Mandrel bending keeps the internal diameter constant through the bends, and with the pipe built to OEM sizing the rest of the factory system clamps up as it did before. That combination is why it suits someone who finds the OEM exhaust a little too quiet but does not want an overly loud system, and also why it is only for a car still running the standard exhaust.
